CONSULT (Cont'd)
REAL TIMEDIAGNOSIS INDATA MONITOR MODE

CONSULT hastwo kinds oftriggers andthey canbeselected bytouching "SETTING" in"DATA
MONITOR" mode.
1. "AUTO TRIG"(Automatic trigger):
• The malfunction willbeidentified onthe CONSULT screeninreal time.
In other words, DTCandmalfunction itemwillbedisplayed atthe moment themalfunction is
detected byECM.
DATA MONITOR canbeperformed continuously untilamalfunction isdetected. However, DATA
MONITOR cannotcontinue anylonger afterthemalfunction detection.
2. "MANU TRIG"(Manual trigger):
• DTC andmalfunction itemwillnotbedisplayed automatically onCONSULT screeneventhough
a malfunction isdetected byECM. •
DATA MONITOR canbeperformed continuously eventhough amalfunction isdetected.
Use these triggers asfollows:
1. "AUTO TRIG"
• While trying todetect theDTC byperforming the"DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE",besure
to select to"DATA MONITOR (AUTOTRIG)" mode.Youcanconfirm themalfunction atthe
moment itis detected.
• While narrowing downthepossible causes,CONSULT shouldbeset in"DATA MONITOR (AUTO
TRIG)" mode,especially incase theincident isintermittent.
Inspect thecircuit bygently shaking (ortwisting) suspicious connectors, components andharness
in the "DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE".Themoment amalfunction isfound theDTC willbe
displayed. (RefertoGI section, "Incident Simulation Tests"in"HOW TOPERFORM EFFICIENT
DIAGNOSIS FORANELECTRICAL INCIDENT".)
2. "MANU TRIG"
• Ifthe malfunction isdisplayed assoon as"DATA MONITOR" isselected, resetCONSULT to
"MANU TRIG".Byselecting "MANUTRIG"youcanmonitor andstore thedata. Thedata canbe
utilized forfurther diagnosis, suchasacomparison withthevalue forthe normal operating con-
dition.
